We then go to the estates countryside restaurant which has lovely views of the Tuscan countryside to have a light lunch consisting of two courses, and the estate's own wine and olive oil. The guide will enlighten you on wine and olive oil making, and tell you all about the traditional Tuscan cuisine whilst you enjoy lunch. The Estate has a marvelously atmospheric 'alimentari' where you can choose to browse and or purchase something to take home if you wish.
